🌍 Revisiting John Kerry’s Powerful Speech at the Climate Innovation Forum 🌍 As we continue our collective journey towards a sustainable future, it's crucial to revisit the inspiring moments that fuel our determination. At the end of June, the Climate Action Coalition was officially launched during the Climate Innovation Forum, the flagship event of London Climate Action Week. Former U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, John Kerry, delivered a compelling speech that resonated with everyone in the room—and beyond. His words underscored the urgency of our mission, the progress we've made, and the immense challenges that lie ahead. Kerry reminds us that this is not just a fight against climate change but for a better quality of life. Cleaner air, sustainable energy, and economic opportunities await if we choose the path of action over apathy. 👉 If you missed his speech, you can read the full transcript or watch the launch on our website here: https://lnkd.in/eBjpbjjk 👉 Whilst you're there, take time to learn more about the Climate Action Coalition—an initiative bringing together a global community across various sectors that is committed to achieving 2030 climate and nature goals.

Following the incredible success of the Climate Action Innovation Zone at COP28 UAE, we are delighted to announce the return of the Hydrogen Transition Summit, for its 5th annual edition, on 16 November at COP29 Azerbaijan in Baku. 📈 The hydrogen sector is experiencing unprecedented growth, with planned projects totalling $570 billion in global investment. However, a critical challenge remains, with only 7% of these projects reaching a final investment decision. To capitalise on the current momentum, the industry must reassess its strategies to scale effectively and bolster the economic viability of hydrogen projects. The largest and longest running hydrogen event at COP, the Hydrogen Transition Summit will convene 500 key stakeholders from across the value chain including investors, hydrogen producers and buyers, tech innovators, project developers and policy makers. 💻 Check out the website now: https://lnkd.in/g86qBKPN
